Busy week

Hello everybody! ^^ Mom is busy taking care of my cousin Andrew. My tita Ianne and Andrew will be staying here for a few days because my Mama Tina is in the hospital. =( Please help us pray for her speedy recovery.

So, here's what I've been doing these past few days. Let's start with Easter Sunday...
We went to Kuya Cobi's house to swim.. Yey!

And check out my new toy -- Slide from Kuya Cobi ^^ Wohooooo!!!
Thank you Kuya Cobi!

And I've been playing with my Barney again... ^^

Talking Hands

Oh dear, I just realized that I only have a few photos of Calleigh during her 14th month. tsk! kainis!  
 Calleigh - 14 months @ Astoria Plaza Hotel
 
I was too busy with my cupcakes and IR photos... However, I have tons of her videos naman. I will be sharing that later... My little princess is now 15 month old. Still can't walk on her own, she's still holding onto furnitures or holding her ate's hand when walking but she can manage a few steps on her own before falling. ^^ Her teeth - Yey! Upper - 4 teeth and Lower - 5 teeth. ^^ Heehee! Calleigh loves singing and dancing. She still loves books, she can sit still and listen to a story for ten minutes or more, or pretends to read them. ^^ Talking is not a problem! I don't have to encourage her to talk because she talks non-stop. Her willingness to repeat all the words she can hear -- nakakaloka!

Here's a story:
Me: meron kausap sa phone - "hahaha! Pun-ye-ta kakaloka ang lula mo... blah blah blah"
(Calleigh was busy watching her elmo video, pag baba ng phone)
Calleigh: mom?
Me: Yes honey?
Calleigh: P-TA? P-TA? (laughs) mom happy? P-ta! P-ta!
Me: yap, mom is happy and I said fita anak!. (pabulong - yari ako sa tatay mo nito)
Calleigh: Fita? Eat? go down mom, eat!

O diba? di ko masabing NO kasi uulitin lang niya ng uulitin. Hahaha! O well, maybe it's time for me to share her videos...

Video 1: - Showing her nose, mouth, teeth, saying her name, kuya hanz and jayjay


Video 2  - I'm signing and she's saying the words (dede,apple,ball,hat)


Video 3 - Mommy using sign language and Calleigh saying the words (eat,book, mommy,daddy, etc....)


Heehee! Galing no? I'm so proud of you Calleigh...That's it for now...

Infrared Photography

Infrared Photography captured my interest. ^^ Jayjay started introducing it when we were in Boracay. I've been busy researching for tips in IR photography and practicing what I've learned.  Anyway, here are some of our IR photos.

Graduation Day

Another achievement for my Hanzy boy. ^^Hanz graduated from 6th grade at Young St. John Integrated School.  I don’t know if I was just an emotional mom but when I saw my son in his ‘toga’ I was nearly into tears. I really wanted to cry, the feeling is really 'magical', a feeling I really cannot explain especially when we went up the stage and took his diploma. A proud mother indeed!
 Ang pogi!!!
with Daddy
with Mama and Papa




 with teacher and classmates
-- PRICELESS! A truly magical feeling! ^^

As for his reward....
Taran!!! Itouch 4th gen! Congratulations Honey! We love you so much!

Day off

Jayjay and I went to Boracay together with my siblings and friends. ^^ Wipeee!
We stayed at Isla Del Mar, Station 1 - Mura lang ng beer nila ha 40 pesos!
hindi beachfront pero less than a minute walk lang. ^^ heehee!

Our favorite place... 7am to 7pm HAPPY HOUR!!!
White house!!!
View from the cottage

 Thank you Lord, for giving us time to relax and enjoy.

JUICE BAR
And ofcourse, white house ulit!!!

Being a stay-at-home mother comes with its own set of stressors like any other occupation. Staying at home is not easy. Every day "mommy" deals with their children around the clock. Do everything that needs to be taken care of for the family. Boredom sets in doing the same thing day in and day out. However, leaving your kid/s at home while taking a day/s off is much more stressful. ^^ whew! GUILT sets in! heehee! But I think, I truly deserved that vacation. ^^ "If mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy."
